We are posting a prayer a day during lockdown
Prayers for business owners and families facing financial stress.
Jesus, we thank You for Your faithfulness in how you have guided and equipped people in their jobs and have provided in the past. It can be scary and overwhelming not knowing how bills and obligations will be met or to not be able to provide for families. As people feel financial strain during the uncertainty, bring them comfort and peace, reminding them that You are there for them. Provide for them in their times of need.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
—John 14:27 (NIV)
Please see our 'Prayer' page for previous day prayers.

WORLD WIDE DAY OF PRAYER SERVICE
FRIDAY 5TH MARCH 2021 AT 10.30AM
Local churches are organising this year’s World Wide Day of Prayer service at Guilden Morden Congregational Chapel at 10.30 on Friday 5th March.
We are currently planning for this to be a zoom service. If the Covid situation improves we can review this. Even if we can go to a live service we shall still offer the Zoom option for those who are not able to attend. Whichever route we go we would like to involve as many local churches as possible.
Traditionally this has been organised by the women of the congregations but last year it was opened up to all who would like to be involved.
The country who has planned this year’s service is Vanuatu and we have already been offered a Vanuatu flag to display by Micki and Tim Browning.
This is always a wonderful opportunity to share in prayer with fellow Christians from all denominations and all countries.
So if you are not organising your own service or committed to one we would love you to join us for the service. Likewise if you know of other churches whom you think might like to join with us please let me know and I shall forward on details.
Watch this space for further details.

Faith, fellowship and fun
Welcome to you all!
We are a small friendly congregation who worship together every Sunday morning at 10.30 am.
Why not come along and see whether you would like to join us? We are committed to working in our community to offer hope and support and to bring members of our community together in faith and love.
You will always find a warm welcome, friendship and support.
Each week we hold a different style of service. We hope one or more will suit you.
1st Sunday
Café Service. This is an all-age service of worship, starting off with coffee and croissants followed by a half hour service of songs, prayers and worship. The service provides toys and activities for children including pre-school children. The service is very informal, sometimes a bit noisy but always joyous.
2nd Sunday
Shared service usually with Litlington Congregational Church. This service will be at 11am if we are at Litlington and will be a more formal style of service. Check on our Diary page to check time and place.
3rd Sunday
We join with our friends from St Mary’s Church of England church for a shared service of worship. The venue alternates and sometimes the service at St Mary’s may be at 10 or 11 am. The service at the chapel will always be at 10.30. Again please check with our Diary page for time and place.
4th Sunday and /or last Sunday of the month
On the last Sunday of the month we hold our communion service. We welcome to our communion table all who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Those who may be unsure of their faith are most welcome to join us and can, if they wish, receive a blessing instead during the service.
Usually the fourth and last Sunday are the same but occasionally we get a month with 5 Sundays. If this is the case we often try to offer a different kind of service so check with our Diary page.
So whatever type of service may suit you best please come along and give us a try and join us for fellowship and worship. It is a great opportunity to give thanks, to learn and reflect, to enjoy and support each other.
